https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl After sharing with your colleagues, post one of your fabulous ideas to our wall. en-us 2016-09-09 21:20:01 UTC 2025-10-26 02:23:36 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124235594 Quizlet is a free virtual flashcard program that I use in the classroom. Creators have added a live session that has the students sign up for a session and play as teams. They end up yelling due to excitement and you hear the question ¨Who has (answer) and they are helping each other. You may have a stack of 50 ¨cards¨ but it only allows 11 questions. It also gives feedback on what was missed. I never gave directions on how to use it but they figured it out. They catch on really quick by round 2 , if you play round 3 it is fast. ]]> 2016-09-16 01:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124235594 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124235600 I love the zaption with Math videos in Youtube. The students love to watch the videos and to the activities. Playposit is similar to Zaption, there are so many activities that you can download and use. ]]> 2016-09-16 01:01:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124235600 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124235841 This is the most amazing search engine I have ever seen. I've always been a Google fan, but from a history perspective, Sweet Search blows it out of the water. This search engine only pulls up credible and trustworthy sites. My kids are constantly needing to search things up for different projects and assignments and this will save me the headache of having my kids constantly trying to use Wikipedia for everything. ]]> 2016-09-16 01:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124235841 hwhite16 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124235943 This is a lesson among my favorite lessons, that I do with my class. I easily convince them that I had been up all night researching , and I came across the article on how Apple has designed a mind probe. I had them review the articles and tell me if they would support or deny (publication) of said article. We even made the tin foil protectors so that they would not have their minds read. It really opened up for extra lessons on internet safety and it just keeps growing. It was extremity educational.]]> 2016-09-16 01:05:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124235943 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236026 2016-09-16 01:07:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236026 msnodgrass1 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236083 Last year I did a lesson using nearpod on complete sentence.   My students loved the fact they got to be interactive with the lesson.  I was able to keep them engaged by showing student work before we moved on to the next slides.

We are headed to writing multiple paragraphs in an animal report. One thing that was very helpful for my students was using the website, Wonderopolis. They were able to read and respond to an article they were interested in reading about in paragraph form. ]]> 2016-09-16 01:08:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236116 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236229 I got into my water cycle unit already and started showing the Bill Nye Water Cycle video, which is awesome.  Then I realized this would be way better if I'd had them view it on their chromebook after importing it into one of these apps and importing the questions.  I had totally forgot about these until that exact moment.  So I'm going to work on that so that I can use it with the other class.

My 4th grade Students loved creating videos on all our subjects as review for testing last year. 
It is a paid service though.]]> 2016-09-16 01:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236315 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236362 I haven't used this program, but it looks good. This site provides a video to teach each topic in the Common Core. Students can watch the video and then take a quiz. The results seem as though they could be sent to the teacher.]]> 2016-09-16 01:13:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236362 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236374 I thought "Light Sail" looked interesting.  This year I'm trying to push my students to read as many different types of genre as possible.  This looks like a way to get kids reading and allows them to be responsive and interactive with books both fiction and non-fiction that they may be more interested in.]]> 2016-09-16 01:13:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236374 https://padlet.com/jballif1/c3dwazrp6xl/wish/124236645 I love using Kahoot and Quizizz. This year I would like to try the Common Core Quest. I liked the 5 questions I went through for 5th grade math NBT.1.  If the students missed problems, videos were there ready to teach.
